Our Rodent Trapping, Exclusion & Baiting Service

A Comprehensive 6-Step Approach to Permanent Rodent Control

Thorough Rodent Inspection

Our skilled technicians initiate the process with a comprehensive inspection of your property. We identify rodent entry points, nesting areas, droppings, gnaw marks, and the extent of the infestation. This insight guides the development of a targeted rodent control strategy specific to your home.

Customized Trapping & Removal Plans

Recognizing that each rodent infestation is unique, we create tailored trapping and removal plans based on the inspection's findings. Our approach involves strategically placing snap traps, glue boards, and live traps to efficiently capture rodents and prevent their return.

Safe & Effective Methods

Your safety and well-being are our priority. Our trapping and removal methods are chosen to effectively eliminate rodents while ensuring minimal risk to you, your family, and pets. We use targeted placement techniques to keep bait stations and traps away from children and non-target animals.

Exclusion & Entry Point Sealing

Trapping alone is not enough. Our technicians identify and seal all rodent entry points gaps around pipes, vents, utility penetrations, rooflines, and foundation cracks. Exclusion is the only permanent solution to prevent re-infestation.

Exterior Baiting Systems

For ongoing population control, we install tamper-resistant exterior bait stations around your property perimeter. These stations intercept rodents before they enter your home and are serviced on a scheduled basis to maintain effectiveness.

Experienced Technicians

With years of experience in rodent control throughout South Florida, our FDACS-licensed technicians have the expertise to handle roof rats, Norway rats, and house mice at all infestation levels. Their knowledge is continually updated with the latest advancements in pest control.

Rodents We Treat in South Florida

South Florida's warm climate supports year-round rodent activity. Understanding which species you're dealing with is critical to effective treatment.

Roof Rat (Rattus rattus)

Also known as: Black rat, ship rat

The most common rodent in South Florida. Excellent climbers that nest in attics, trees, and upper areas of buildings. Commonly found near Biscayne Bay, the Everglades, and in neighborhoods with mature tree canopies.

Key Signs:

  • Droppings in attic/upper areas
  • Gnaw marks on rafters
  • Sounds in ceiling at night

Norway Rat (Rattus norvegicus)

Also known as: Brown rat, sewer rat

Larger than roof rats, Norway rats burrow in the ground and prefer lower areas. Common in areas near water, dumpsters, and in older commercial areas of Homestead and South Miami-Dade.

Key Signs:

  • Burrows along foundation
  • Droppings near ground level
  • Gnaw marks on lower structures

House Mouse (Mus musculus)

Also known as: Common mouse

Smaller and more agile than rats, house mice can squeeze through gaps as small as a dime. They reproduce rapidly and are common in kitchens, pantries, and storage areas throughout our service area.

Key Signs:

  • Small droppings (rice-sized)
  • Gnaw marks on food packaging
  • Nests in insulation

Frequently Asked Questions Rodent Control

How much does rodent control cost in South Florida?
Rodent control pricing depends on the size of your property, the severity of the infestation, and whether exclusion work is needed. Our Rodent Defense Audit starts at $600 and includes a comprehensive inspection and exclusion report. Call (305) 330-5565 for a free estimate.
What types of rodents do you treat in Homestead and South Miami-Dade?
We treat all common South Florida rodents including roof rats (Rattus rattus), Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus), and house mice (Mus musculus). Roof rats are the most common species in our service area, particularly in homes near trees, canals, and wooded areas.
How long does rodent treatment take?
Initial trapping and removal typically takes 1 to 2 weeks for active infestations. Exclusion work is completed during a separate visit after the population is controlled. Exterior baiting is ongoing and serviced on a regular schedule.
Will rodents come back after treatment?
Without proper exclusion, rodents will return. That's why we emphasize sealing all entry points as part of our service. Our Rodent Defense Audit identifies every potential entry point and provides a detailed exclusion plan to prevent re-infestation.
Are your rodent treatments safe for children and pets?
Yes. We use tamper-resistant bait stations that prevent access by children and pets. Snap traps and glue boards are placed in areas inaccessible to non-target animals. We follow all EPA label requirements and will advise you on any precautions during treatment.
Do you service all of Homestead, Cutler Bay, Palmetto Bay, and Pinecrest?
Yes we provide rodent control throughout our full service area including Homestead, Cutler Bay, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, South Miami, Coral Gables, and Kendall. Our office is located at 2611 SE 1st Street, Homestead FL 33033.
Who do I call if I hear rats in my walls at night?
Call Dade Pest Solutions at 305-330-5565. Our call center is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Scratching sounds in walls at night are a classic sign of roof rats, the most common rodent in South Florida homes. We can schedule a Rodent Defense Audit to locate entry points and eliminate the infestation.
What is the fastest way to get rid of rats in my house?
The fastest approach is a combination of interior snap trapping and exterior bait stations, followed by exclusion to seal all entry points. Dade Pest Solutions can begin trapping within 24 to 48 hours of your call. Exclusion work is scheduled after the active population is controlled, typically within 1 to 2 weeks.
Are there rats in Homestead Florida?
Yes. Roof rats are extremely common in Homestead and throughout Miami-Dade County. South Florida's warm climate, abundant fruit trees, canals, and dense vegetation create ideal conditions for rat populations. Homes near wooded areas, citrus trees, or water features are especially vulnerable.
